I stayed in a junior suite with 2 queen at the knickerbocker. First thing is that the staff is super nice, caring and helpful, that part is truly exceptional. You feel like they genuinely care, nothing fake or passive that some may sense when in NYC. The room is clean, the shower is very spacious, looks all modern. Now I'm used to staying in 3 to 5k Sq. Ft. Places with the kids, but the room felt super small, but that's life in the city and when I was choosing a place this was qualified as a spacious one... so in the city be prepared to squeeze in, space is at a premium . So why not a 5 star? Being in the city, having a view should be a must, but my room had none at all and all better rooms were not available so for the price of these rooms, some view should be had I feel. In any case, it's an awesome place, I usually don't stay in hotels in the city, hard to compare to others... in the city everything is expensive, fast moving... you wonder how people can afford to live there... it sure is different and you have to adjust your expectations. Some great features of the city, everything is a minute walk away, super convenient and I always do feel safe in Manhattan walking around as well... Overall great hotel, great stay, being that I have a nice house in Jersey and I'm only 40 minutes from the city, I probably wouldn't stay in the city again, this was just to get out of town for one night with the kids... but it's like about $1.5k when you add all the little expenses, nothing too bad, but not necessary... I could have shown the kids the city and see what we wanted to see and save $1200...
